The Tree of the Sun soon became a new landmark in Yancheng.
The warm tree constantly emits the warm light and heat like the sun, still illuminating the area even in the dark night.
Perhaps, from another angle, the darker the night, the more warm and precious it becomes
“Two thousand dollars to buy two streets is a bit absurd.”
Perhaps it was too full and its size grew too smoothly. Those vines had already spread to other blocks. Lu Pingping gritted his teeth and prepared to spend a lot of money to buy a few frontages.
As a result, when Lu Ping'an really proposed that he wanted to live two streets over, the other party immediately sent over the land deeds.
"That's it. The original price was five hundred as a result of bargaining. We spent a lot of effort on the buyer's side to get them to accept two thousand."
"Is this the fruit of face? But what is the difference between it and robbery? Even if the money here is valuable, it must be hundreds of thousands."
"There is a difference. The other person has to say nice things and thank us for being willing to accept the money."
Big Cat's joke was quite cold. At least Lu Ping'an coughed twice and didn't laugh.
"I'm not kidding. If I was willing to take it back then, it would be to give the other party face, and they would still want to thank me."
The big cat frowned and said outrageous words.
"That would be an even worse joke and a bit hellish."
What's even more outrageous, Lu Ping'an thought about it, it seemed to be true. On the previous earth, if a quasi-god was willing to use your things to form a good relationship or at least get to know his face, it was worth coming back.
But also on the original earth, there were really not many things worthy of being "taken" by a quasi-god.
“How is our plan working?”
Lu Pingan abruptly changed the subject. He was always a little unaccustomed to things like "relying on the strong to bully the weak" and "the natural privileges of the strong." Perhaps it was because even though he was already an out-and-out strong man, he was not used to being strong.
Because of his self-awareness, he always puts himself in the perspective of the weak or even ordinary people.
Da Mao didn't force him. After all, according to her experience, after ten or several decades, mortals will always change. If you sit on your butt for a long time, your brain will naturally change. But if he didn't change, she would be even more looking forward to it.
"There are already about five hundred people. Judging from the entire city, the number is not large, but the rumors have definitely spread."
In this day and age, urban rumors often have real background.
Language is power. In the extraordinary world, knowledge is sometimes poisonous. One of the common sense in the world of professionals is not to believe "rumors" and "stories" casually, especially when it comes to the direction of rituals on the current earth.
Elementary school students all know that "rituals" such as Bixian must not be touched.
But in this world, ordinary people don't have this concept. The "rumors" released by Lu Ping'an quickly spread through the streets.
They are the first batch of beneficiaries, but at the same time, they are also the first batch of experimental subjects.
"So far, there are no adverse reactions."
Lu Ping'an sent a special person to collect the development status of the first batch of personnel. It can only be said that it is quite subtle.
He originally thought that most "professionals" would change their destiny immediately, leaving their original jobs and embarking on a wonderful life as professionals. But it has been almost a week, and at least one-third of the staff, nothing has changed.
Although he is already a zero-level professional and truly extraordinary, he still does what he should do, especially since a certain porter that Lu Ping'an followed has now used his increased physique to become a gold medal porter and become famous in the industry.
Lu Ping'an was almost stunned.
But later, he discovered that this seemed to be his problem.
"We gave them power, but we didn't give them the manual to use the power, nor the connections and channels for further practice."
After thinking about it for a while, Lu Pingan planned to write a manual to give professionals some basics.
At the same time, tell them some common sense and truth about the world, tell them what caused the world to fall into infinite chaos, tell them that humans are friends and other invaders are enemies, and tell them that the Rebirth Chamber of Commerce can buy what they want.
something
"Uh, isn't this a bunch of private goods?"
"These days, as long as it is information and media, there is no position and no private goods at all. There is no complete objectivity."
Lu Ping'an took it for granted. Since he had used his own resources to start, he naturally had to accept his "private goods" and maybe he might go another way later, but "persuasion" in the initial stage was the most effective, especially
Those who gain strength inherently owe something to themselves.
"There is another problem, the crime rate"
"It is true that many weak people gain strength, and what is most likely to happen is that they become evil after the expansion." This aspect gave both of them a headache.
According to Lu Ping An's team's own follow-up investigation, among the first batch of pilots, almost thirty or forty people have crossed the limits of "Earth Law", and at least more than a hundred people have become obviously negative in temper. Arrogance and rudeness are nothing, and they use their power to bully others and blackmail them.
Killing someone is too much.
There are not many such scum, indeed they are a minority, but just one may lead to the murder of several or even dozens of innocent people.
For this reason, Ping An urgently called for a stop, and at the same time, it also quickly dealt with these inflated people.
“It is not the power that does evil, but the human heart.”
"But those who sell knives have some responsibility. At least, there should be some restrictions."
Lu Pingan also knows that as the invasion of foreign lands continues to escalate, "power" will become more important. Professionals can control the lives of themselves and their loved ones, while mortals can only drift with the tide. In most cases, they are swept directly into the sea by the waves.
ending.
But when the gun is really in hand, it is difficult to say who will be shot first at this stage. And if the situation really worsens, it will be too late to "shoot".
"We can add some restrictions. The supply of contract paper is unlimited, right? A contract like 'You can't borrow the power of professionals to kill people with malicious intent' should be possible, right?"
"This is not difficult, but if a large number of contracts are required, the price we pay must be as small as possible. Finally, we will get a scarlet letter contract? Even so, the restrictions are limited. The contract signed during the curse (Black Iron) has arrived
The third and fourth levels will definitely be ineffective."
"It doesn't matter. As long as they get through the initial expansion period and they get used to having power and the correct way to use power, they can try not to go astray. This is our limit. We can't limit everyone.
personal life"
Lu Ping'an has thought over and over again, the early stage is the most dangerous, and he must avoid going astray from the beginning.
Lu Ping An, Da Mao, and the core members of the club who are still there are also repeatedly discussing this matter.
This experiment is not only a test of the scope and effect of this "ritual", but it is also a sociological experiment, testing what kind of impact it will have if this power is extended to mortals.
Judging from the current feedback, it is definitely not possible to ignore it at all, especially for "teenagers". They may really kill those who bullied them in the past the same day they get the gun.
At least, a stricter pledge should be made in the initial stage to allow it to grow steadily.
By the time he reaches the second or third level, which may be some time later, the new worldview of a professional has matured, and Lu Ping'an can no longer interfere.
"Okay, the ceremony only covers the seven nearby cities. Is there any way to solve this scope problem?"
